The Mercedes-Benz C11 is better than coffee

Is this fun, or entirely terrifying?

While Audi and Peugeot have been the unrivaled kings of Le Mans for the better part of a decade, the cars that came before were maybe even a bit more over the top. Don't believe me? Check out today's video from inside the Mercedes-Benz C11 prototype as it runs a lap at the Circuit de la Sarthe. The 5.0-liter twin-turbo engine screams throughout one of the most violent rides I've seen from Le Mans. Hang on.
